Top WRs Going Forward (1 Viewer)

[DerwoodG]

Dodds/Henry have Malcom Floyd as the #7 WR going forward but has Brandon Lloyd as the #19. Lloyd has more targets, more yards, and more points so far. Do we expect a significant drop-off of the Denver passing game or is Floyd suppose to get even better?

What are your thoughts?

I dont have a problem flinging floyd out there every week. Rivers is too good

I guess it depends on whether or not you believe Knowshon will be the panacea Denver has been looking for in their running game.

You also have to factor in weather and San Diego is a much friendlier environment to play in late in the season.

"F" comes before "L" ... so I'm OK with it!

Except during the fantasy play-off run in weeks 14, 15, 16, San Diego faces KC, SF, and Cin, while Denver faces Ari, Oak, and Hou. Looks a lot more favorable for Lloyd, don't you think? Also, I tend to favor WR who get more looks. After 5 weeks, Lloyd has 54 targets and 30 catches while Floyd has 39 targets and 22 catches.

after a couple weeks i was making fun of my friend as he was bragging about his lloyd pickup and said yea he will be good as long as kyle orton throws for 5000 yards....welp...

Flip a coin, same odds of being correct and less time wasted. Win-win.

Every year one WR jumps up to the top 10 and this year it's Lloyd.

I have no clue about his value next year, or the year after. But THIS year, he's going to win a lot of people money. At this point I'd start Lloyd over Calvin/AJ/Fitz without hesitation. He has double the FF pts (roughly) over those guys in PPR.

Like someone said he has more targets/catches means reliability to me. He's just the safer bet.

Late season schedule definitely favors Lloyd.Weeks 1-2 with Knowshon Lloyd had 12 total targets, one 100 yard game and zero TDs. Weeks 3-5 without Knowshon Lloyd has 42 targets, three 100 yard games and three TDs.Looking at the schedules and I don't think weather will be too significant a factor for either player. But who knows with the global warming and all.

I would start both over GJennings and Colston

this has nothing to do with moreno. just becuase you found a split doesnt mean its meaningful. this has to do with a couple things. chemistry between him and orton(remember this is lloyds first season here in what is supposedly an incredibly complicated offense). and of course lloyd learning the offense and being fully integrated into it rather than how he was used in the first few weeks on a limited basis. -i dont actually watch the broncos games but this is what ssog says and he is a very good source for information like this.

Influenced partially by a slight issue with WR's and bye weeks this week - I just traded Fitz straight up for loyd. I don't see denvers running game improving to much and I like orton over whoever is tossing the rock in Arizonia.

Yeah. I'm no Norman Einstein but I am pretty sure it is fair to say that the passing game production will be somewhat influenced by the Broncos ability to mount an effective rushing attack.FTR I am not convinced they will be able to average much more than 80ypg on the ground, regardless of who is running the ball, so the passing game should be secure. But if they manage to push that to 100-110 ypg then you will see the passing game production drop.

What about defenses getting some film and adjusting to the Bronco's scheme? Do you think Lloyd has the ability to beat consistent double teams?Sincere question.

Since week 1, Lloyd has gotten the same or more targets per game than Floyd. Both have 3 TD's. But Floyd has to compete with Gates...If Orton can be consistent (big if) LLoyd looks to be a better play.
